Institute for Security and Public Policy

The Institute for Security and Public Policy led by Northeastern’s School of Criminology and Criminal Justice, in collaboration with the colleges of Computer and Information Science and D’Amore-McKim School of Business, deals with developing a deeper understanding of the security threats that face America and other countries in the 21st Century. The Institute for Security and Public Policy is a strategic alliance to better understand the dynamics underlying security, risk management and public safety, as well as education on initiatives that engage private and public sector leaders in a meaningful discourse about how each contributes to the safety and security of people, property, information and ideas.
